Title: Full-time Google Doodler
Post by: rgermick on February 01, 2012, 10:59:30 AM
Hello my future coworker this is what the job is like:

Google Doodlers illustrate, sculpt, design, animate, act in, and generally conjure the special logos that show up on our homepages around the world (http://www.google.com/doodles (http://www.google.com/doodles)).

As doodles get more interactive, multimedia, and game-like, a doodler's role is of a skilled visual artist who can envision, lead, and execute great user experiences from end to end.

A doodler works on a small team of talented and fun fellow doodlers, some of the best web developers in the world, and the occasional top-flight guest doodler (past guest doodlers include Jim Lee, Takashi Murakami, and Jim Henson Company). And, just when you thought I was done namedropping, Vince Vaughn stopped by our office yesterday and told us we do a great job. (True story!)

All in all, it's a nice gig. In fact, Google is officially the #1 place to work: http://goo.gl/ZbcyL (http://goo.gl/ZbcyL)  (For reference, Build-a-Bear Workshop couldn't even crack the top sixty!)
